Study of high-risk neuroblastoma biology using tumor and blood samples
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This study looks at how high-risk neuroblastoma grows and behaves by collecting samples from your child and checking disease markers. It may help researchers understand what biology is driving the cancer and guide future treatments.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child must be older than 31 days
- Your child must have been diagnosed with high-risk neuroblastoma
- If the cancer came back or did not respond, you can join at NANT institutions even if no tumor is measurable
- If the cancer has not relapsed and was treated at a NANT institution, you can join as long as required specimens are sent
- Your child must agree to a disease evaluation and to sample collection/submission

This Phase 3 trial tests treatments for children and teens with high-risk neuroblastoma, aiming to improve outcomes by using biology-based risk information. It also requires limited prior chemotherapy and specific timing after diagnosis.
This study collects blood samples from neuroblastoma patients to test for tiny pieces of tumor DNA that can show how well treatment is working. By tracking these markers over time, doctors hope to better predict how patients will respond and improve care.
This Phase 3 study tests whether adding either a targeted drug (lorlatinib) or a radioactive treatment (131I-MIBG) to intensive chemotherapy improves outcomes for children with high-risk neuroblastoma. It may help by aiming at tumor cells more directly alongside standard treatment.
This study looks at patterns in what adults with neuroblastoma experience during treatment and follow-up visits. It may help researchers understand what patients go through so care and support can improve.
This trial tests adding a targeted drug called dinutuximab to standard chemotherapy, surgery, and a stem cell transplant for children and young adults with a new diagnosis of high-risk neuroblastoma. The goal is to see if this combination helps more patients stay in remission.
This Phase 2 trial tests whether adding a drug called naxitamab to standard early (frontline) treatment improves outcomes for children with high-risk neuroblastoma. It may help by helping the immune system better target the cancer during initial induction therapy.
